Elf Yourself and On a Shelf

This is too much fun. Each year they get better. Try the disco one.

Do you have Elf on a Shelf? We got one last year and the kids (even the older ones) love to try and find where Buddy hid the night before. And yes, that's my sister and I sitting on Santa's lap...I'm in the plaid dress making the weird face.

Hi there, Pam - thanks so much for stopping by! I really love your blog and see that we have many friends in common: jen, gabe, kerri, jen denton, cindy, et al ... wow! Looks like you're on the Cape? I'm on the North Shore ... nice to "meet" you! I'm about to be your 70th follower ;-)

I am awestruck by your amazing photos throughout your blog, they're incredible! I'm a work in progress with my photography, I love it but have a long way to go! And, yes, we DO have an Elf on the Shelf - his name is Toddy and I'm working on a post about him, so stay tuned ... we love him!!

Okay, I need to know what Elf on a Shelf is? My kids would love this! They are very into surprises. They have a tradition of hiding random things from "Santa" in each other's stockings hung on the mantle. Nothing like getting a used spoon from the kitchen, dead batteries, or a smelly sock surprise in the toe of your stocking and yelling out "Thanks Santa!" I think the Elf on a shelf might be better.

About Me

Hi there! I'm a wife to a great guy. When we met I told him I wanted to stay home and raise kids. He has let me do just that. And now 19 years, 4 kids, and 7 moves later we've started another adventure. We just moved to Paris! I like wearing aprons and pearls and am usually roasting something in the oven. I would happily go back to the 1950's but I'd miss the internet too much. This is a blog about my life.
